I love angle grinders. But do take care.

Mine savaged me.

I was using a wire wheel attachment - no guard on it, to strip old paint from steel. Using it one handed while I turned the steel around. The thing took off and took a massive chunk out of my arm then wrapped itself up in my multiple layers of tshirts etc over my stomach. I didn't know if I was disembowelled. this thing was out to get me. Blood all over the place. I was OK other than having a weird area on my arm that doesn't have skin pigmentation LOL
